Hedwig and the Angry Inch

Rated NR

Hedwig is the best movie about
failed transexuality to feature songs about
Platos Symposium ever made by
humans. Hedwig is a German
glam-rocker who traded in her penis for a
ticket to America. Tommy Gnosis is her
illicit baby-faced boy ex-lover who has
stolen her songs and made himself
famous in her stead. Lots of hot rocks
from someone whos had his surgically
removed and lots of rocking hotness from
director/writer/star John Cameron Mitchell
make this a cult movie that you dont have
to join a cult to enjoy. However, if you do
want to join a cult, the Loft will be showing
Hedwig with concomitant
performances by a live cast. So go see it
now before it gets all Rocky Horror
and fills up with formerly thin goth kids
and their sad-eyed, asexual lovers.
